Summer time is really bad, because it is low season and most places are closed. Frankly you've almost missed it for this year. I would recommend October to Feb/March
Actually, the beginning of May isnt bad, since the weather, though hot and humid, is ameliorated by the pre-Monsoon breezes coming off the sea. However, on the whole I would say November to mid-March.
